Fun little trip to London today with this wonderful group of humans!

Wessex Global Stroke Partnerships@wgstroke.bsky.social · last yr.

It was an honour for our team to visit the House of Lords today as special guests of Lord Nigel Crisp. A wonderful opportunity to discuss global health and the valuable work of health care partnerships 🌎

🚨 New Blog 🚨 We are delighted to be hosting two Commonwealth Scholarship Fellows with @WGStroke -they are spending 6 weeks learning about stroke care services in the UK. In our recent blog, Dr Val Akwulpwa reflects on his time at @HHFTnhs 🌎 🇬🇧 🇬🇭 🇬🇲 www.wgstroke.org/blog

Really great talk from Ulrike Hammerbeck on the mRS, its association to the range of impairments experiences post stroke, and its appropriateness as a primary OCM in rehabilitation studies. Is it really a (blunt) measure of motor impairment? #NNR2025

#NNR2025 Interesting talk on applying cTBS (theta burst stimulation) to the contralesional hemisphere following stroke (inhibitory)….leading to improvements in affected arm function without impacting unaffected arm function.

Hybrid models of care - that include tele-rehabilitation - offer great opportunities to improve rehabilitation delivery and choice for many patients with neurological conditions. Systematic plans for adoption are needed. A great overview from Prof Jenny Freeman at #NNR2025

Kicking off #NNR2025 with keynote from Prof Jenny Freeman on tele-rehabilitation 💻 📱 📞 . SR evidence shows telerehab yields comparable outcomes to conventional care across a range of outcomes. Cost effectiveness evidence limited. Patient satisfaction generally good 👍🏽

Busy week for us at UHD filming with super star Ian, for both BBC and ITV local news, plus a bit of live radio - all to promote the TRICEPS Trial m.youtube.com/watch?v=IhKO...

UHD part of a ground breaking new trial to improve stroke rehab

Hearing about L1 psychological support at #UKSF24. Hearing lived experience - “good psychological support lifts me up a bit, helps me to thrive. Bad psychological support can knock me down miles.” Words have a profound impact +everyone should have L1 Psych Support Training.

It may be a film quote, but at the same time, it captures the heart of personalised care #personalisedcare #behaviourchangebuzz

Super to be at #UKSF24 representing TULAY with 2 project posters: 1️⃣ A scoping review of stroke services within the Philippines 2️⃣ Building Bridges & Solutions in Self-Management Support after Stroke: a global health co-design project for stroke survivors, families & healthcare in the Philippines

😴 Up to 50% of people meet the diagnostic criteria for a sleep disorder post stroke. 📈 Prevalence of insomnia post stroke is 3-4x that of general population +has significant impact on recovery +QOL. Brief scale <16 is indicative of insomnia- neurologyopen.bmj.com/content/6/2/e0… #UKSF24

#UKSF24 Opening Plenary - we are already hearing about @NHSEngland 10 Year Health Plan - one priority is to shift care from hospital to community. Our @UHD_NHS SQUIRE pilot focusses on just this:

#UKSF24 Prof Terry Quinn - excellent presentation challenging the stroke community to “zoom out”… rather than focussing in, specialising too far and working in silos. Priorities - recognising multimorbidity, frailty awareness, social determinants, rehab and life after stroke.

#UKSF24 Opening Plenary - Prof Martin James, brilliantly highlighting the glacial process of knowledge translation and mobilisation…..with a call to arms to drive changes in practice. Key message relevant across the stroke pathway.

Authors found the Time to Walking Independently after STroke (TWIST) prediction tool more accurately predicted independent walking than physiotherapists at 4, 6, or 9 wks post-stroke. The prediction tool may be useful for early rehab & discharge planning. 🧠🔄 🧠📈 🧪 journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

For those into #behaviourchange frameworks, Susan Michie et al's is interesting http://bit.ly/wZGfGW [cc @dingstweets; thanks @mhallsworth
